CHARLES HATLEY in FNF Co-Main Event!!!

For those Fightbeaters that HAVEN'T Seen Charles Hatley (The Brother in REED's Sig) in Action, you Get your Chance TONIGHT...He'll B in the Co-Main Event Against a Rough, Rugged, MEAN Looking Motherfucker Named Chris Chatman...The Main Event is Sergio Mora vs. Brian Vera...

Hatley's 14-0, 11 KO's, Chatman's 9-1, 4 KO's...Interesting Tidbit about Chatman; Hatley will B his 11th Opponent & the 6th UNDEFEATED Cat he's Faced, Already...Chatman's Only Loss is by 6-round Decision to Demetrius Andrade, Hatley's Amateur NEMESIS...Moreso, Chatman Sparred w/Vanes Martirosyan and Peter Quillin (BOTH Undefeated) in Preparation for this Fight & he Claims to B a Frequent Visitor to Freddie Roach's Wild Card Gym...

To Say the Least, FNF ISN'T Babysitting Hatley, as he Looks to Make a Splash on the Big Stage...REED's Obviously BIASED & Therefore Won't Bother w/a Prediction, but he'd B LYING if he Said he Wasn't NERVOUS as Fuck, for the Biggest Fight of Hatley's Career Thus Faaaaaaar...

On the Undercard, Luis Yanez (4-0) Returns to the Ring Against a Cat Named Joseph Rios (8-5-1, 3 KO's)...Yanez Already Decisioned him in June of '09, so REED Isn't All that Concerned w/the Outcome of this Bout...Not Sure if Yanez's Bout will B Televised, but Keep your Fingers, Eye's & Toes Crossed...

BIG Night for Dallas/Ft. Worth Boxing & REED's Little Homey's, Hatley & Yanez!!!!....




REED:mj:

 

Looking forward to the card...it's nice to see Yanez's name there...I've been wondering what's been the deal with him, given his inactivity.

What's the forecast looking like tonight in the Metroplex, REED?

 

It's STILL SNOWING as REED Types...& the Metroplex IS NOT Equipped to Handle SEVERE Winter Weather...Snow Tires & the Ability to NAVIGATE Slushy, Icy Roads are FOREIGN Concepts Around Here...Fortunately for REED, he was Born & Raised in St. Louis, Missouri...REED's Kids haven't Been to School Since Monday, Because of the Snow...But Honestly, it's NOT the Level of Snow that'd Lead to School Closings in the Midwest or Northeast...Bunch of Snow PUSSIES Down here in Dallas::...

The "Road Crews" here R a Fucking JOKE...Basically, Enough Cars have to Travel the Same Streets, Before they Become Safe...

All in All, Super Bowl Week has ALREADY Been Ruined, Regardless if the Game is Good or Not...Every Other Day there's a Story about a Club Owner that Invested $100,000.00 or More in Product & Advertisement for "Super Bowl WeeK", & ALL of them R Suffering MAJOR Losses to Where they're Praying to Get just 1/3rd of the Investment Back...

Ironically, this Same Time Last Year, the NBA All Star Game was Held in Dallas/Ft. Worth & the Area had it's WORST Snowstorm EVER...The Thing is, Dallas IS NOT a "Snow" City, Per Se...It Gets Cold Here (Like Freezing Level @ Most, Typically), but Snow & Ice is a RARITY...Yet it's "Conveniently" Fucked Up 2 High Profile Weekends for this Region...



REED:shit:

 

Yanez has 4 friggin fights and already beat this guy, why on earth would he fight this guy again? Does Yanez suck so bad that they are recycling guys after only 4 pro fights?

What is the point?

 

wasn't interested in Mora vs Vera...was gonna catch via DVR tomorrow...I'll watch the live event.

Good luck!

 

There's NO CANDYCOATING It, Yanez NEEDS to Make Up for Lost Time...He Fought a Grand Total of ONE Time in 2010, which is ABSURD...The Bottom Line is, the "Decision Makers" in Yanez's Camp Need to Do a Better Job of MAKING DECISIONS...

In Yanez's Defense, he's the Type of Kid that Fights &/or DOESN'T Fight when he's Told to Fight &/or NOT Fight...

REED Won't Go Sooooooo Faaaaaaar as to Call Rios "Handpicked", but it's Clearly an ADVANTAGEOUS Situation for Yanez, Returning from 360 + Days of INACTIVITY...But Having Said That, there's a Small Degree of Pressure to STOP him This Time or @ Least Replicate the 1st Bout, which was a Fairly Impressive UD...

Also, it AIN'T Necessarily Easy Finding 115 Pound ADULT Motherfuckers in America to Fight....

REED:kidcool:

 

Yeah, I've got some family down there who've been telling me some stories on just how bad it's been (for the area's capabilities).

It's a shame how much of an impact this has had on some of the businesses down there.

 

This is a very good test for Hatley... almost to where I wonder if his handlers are biting off more they can chew. Chatman's snuck up on quite a few cats and was the first to expose Andrade for the amateurish fighter that is.

On Yanez - I've yet to see him other than a YouTube clip so can't comment on whether or not he's progressed since ammys. However, he (or at least his handlers) quickly earned a rep for being next to impossible to negotiate with. Curious if that has anything to do with his layoff, and having only four total fights in 2+ years since the Olympics.

I honestly couldn't care less about Mora-Vera. Would like to see Vera win, but not a fight I will plan my night around. Hatley-Chatman definitely piques my interest, though.

REED, are you going to find a way to get the ref distraced so you can hit Hatley's opponent with a steel chair?

 

Andrade won every round. :giggle:

 

China chinned Hatley is getting knocked out by the way. Or at least looks as awful as he is en route to a decision.

 

As U Probably Know, this ISN'T a Black Gloves Promotion, TWIN...It's Lester Bedford's Show & Since Hatley WON'T Sign w/Him, Lester would Only Accept 50-50 Type of Fights for Hatley to Appear on this Show...Hatley's Old Man Wants the National EXPOSURE to Help Black Gloves Promotions, but CLEARLY, he's Rolling the Dice Here...

Win or Lose, REED's Absolved in this Case & His Hand R CLEAN, Since he ISN'T the Matchmaker for this Particular Show::...But as Black Gloves' Sole Matchmaker, this Fight has HUGE Implications to the Hatley's, REED & His Own Family...If Things Go Right, Perhaps REED WON'T Ever Need his Homey to Pay Off Gambling Debts Again AND Neil Can Finally Get the $50 that REED Owes him::...

Admittedly, REED is NERVOUS as Fuck, Dog...Having Seen Enough Weigh-In's, REED Isn't Normally Fazed by TALK or LOOKS, but this Chris Chatman Motherfucker is SERIOUS!!!...He's Got the LARGEST Deltoids & Traps that REED's EVER Seen on a Jr. Middle...& U HAVE to B Impressed with a Guy who's Fought UNDEFEATED Foes in MORE than Half of his Bouts...

Chatman WASN'T a Shittalker, Per Se, but Very Matter of Fact...Like Many, he OPENLY Questioned Hatley's Chin (& Getting Dropped Hard by Augustus Did NATHAN to Dispell that Notion)...But Having Known Charlie Hatley Since he was 12 Years Old, REED Knows this Dude is a Fucking WARRIOR @ the Core...If/When Hatley Loses, it'll B More of a Fernando Vargas Type of Loss than an Andre Dirrell Type of Loss...When All is Said & Done, Charles Hatley is an ACTION FIGHTER...

Hatley LIKES to Hurt People & he GENUINELY Believes he has the "Biggest Dick" in the Room @ Any Given Time, So to Speak...When he Gets Dropped, he Gets Up & IMMEDIATELY Looks for Payback...On Top of that, he RECOVERS Fairly Quickly...As REED has Often Said, Hatley is Offensive Minded Almost to a FAULT...He OVERCOMMITTS to Going for KO's, Sometimes to the Detriment of his Defense & Head Movement...

But Against the BIGGER, STRONGER Marcos Primera (who KO'ed the Highly Touted Curtis Stevens), Hatley BLENDED Offense & Defense Better than Ever...Hatley RESPECTED Primera's Ability to Hurt him & Fought Accordingly...@ the Risk of Sounding like an Excuse Maker, Hatley Played Augustus CHEAP & RIGHTFULLY Received Some Level of Comeuppance....

Hatley's Style was ALWAYS Better Suited to the Pros than Ammys...He's an EXCELLENT Bodypuncher, but Bodyshots R Almost NEVER Counted in the Ammy's...AND Hatley Can Punch...1 Thing Charles Hatley will NEVER B Accused of is Being DULL...

As for Yanez, the Reputation U've Heard about is ACCURATE...REED Matchmade 2 of his 4 Fights (Including his LONE Fight of 2010) & is ULTRA Cool w/Yanez AND his Peeps...But that Friendship Shit Went to the Side when it was Time to Negotiate Contracts for the 2 Fights of his that REED Did...

REED is Considered Part of "Team Yanez" & Often Asked his Opinion of Things...But if that Opinion ISN'T On Par w/what the Head Honchos Want to Do, REED's Thoughts R Quickly Brushed to the Side...REED has Made it CLEAR to them that the Whole "Olympic Shit" Only has Value Until the NEXT Olympic Class is Named...N 2011, NOBODY Gives a Fuck about a 2004 or 2000 Olympian, Especially 1 that DIDN'T Medal...

As Well as Andre Ward's Career is Going, How Often Do we STILL Hear that he was a GOLD MEDALIST in 2004???...Hardly EVER...Knowing that the 2012 Olympic Team will B Set by Fall of THIS Year, it's PAST Time for Team Yanez to Keep Luis Busy...




REED:mj:

 

U're QUITE the Boxrec Warrior, Huh???...Actually SEEING the Fight Speaks LOUDER than a Scorecard...



REED:dancingBaby:

 

Shall this Post B Treated as your Customarily LAME MMA Thoughts R???...U Know, How U ALWAYS Root Against Certain Guys, yet NEVER EVER Give them Credit, Even AFTER They SHIT on your Pre-Fight Predictions???...

Nice Nick Diaz Sig, By the Way...1 of these Years, Somebody just MIGHT Replicate that Feat & U Can FINALLY Say "I Told So" & IGNORE the Fact that U were OFFBASE & Flat Out WRONG the Majority of the Time, just like U were w/Fedor...



REED:laugh11:

 

GREAT Idea, Brother WHISKEY!...

REED Needs to Find a Lovely VALET to Escort Hatley to the Ring, who can DISTRACT that Referee, if, If, IF Things Get HAIRY...& If the Ref So Happens to B Laurence Cole, that'll Make REED's Job ALOT Easier!



REED:mj:

 

Indeed. ::

 

Hatley is a bum

 

I don't think that this little brat will ever learn. I don't think he realizes what a joke that everyone in the forum thinks he is.

 

Stop sucking my dick Bagface, it's embarrassing.

 

Seriously? Wow! I must have struck a nerve.

Do you really not think that is the consensus around here?

 

Why would it strike a nerve?

You quite literally follow me into threads and contribute nothing but attempts at bashing me. I haven't seen this much dickriding since dymipepel was banned.


I'd be embarrassed if I were you.

Then again, considering you walk around with that baggy, hideous face of yours, shame must not come easy.
